Life after more than three decades in uniform.
After more than three decades in uniform, Taiwo retired expecting a quieter life. Instead, the monthly pension that arrives is barely enough to cover one week of food for the household.
Rice, garri and basic ingredients have become careful calculations. Some days the family manages one solid meal. School fees still arrive. Rent still arrives. The children's needs do not pause simply because his years of service have ended.
Hunger and quiet pressure now sit where structure and regular income once stood.
